refuting misconceptions:1-women in Islam

[AtheistPhil]

lol cant u recognise the desert in the back thats the way they live and wear. u guys must see some muslims raised in the same culture u have cuz u r confusing culture with religion.

The "it's not islam it is the culture that is wrong" argument seems great, in theory only. Because it acknowledges that the teachings of the Qur'an and primitive misogynistic cultures are not incompatible.
If the Qur'an clearly condemned the abuses we see nowadays in the countries applying the sharia law, then no islamic country would ever condone these things. But the reality is different: the sharia is an explicitly islamic set of laws which comes from a certain (and common) interpretation of the Qur'an and the hadiths.


Mo3taz3nbar, tell me how do you know which interpretation of the Qur'an is the correct one ? How do you know which hadiths are divinely inspired ? Which scholars should I trust ? The salafi scholars ? The shi'a scholars ? The ahmadiyya scholars ? Trusting the most popular interpretation or the interpretation of the highest scholar cannot give you the truth.

As Purple Rabbit said: "The nature of religion is such that it is impossible to falsify or verify any specific religious interpretation with religion itself."
